Chapter 31: A Black Heart for Love

Mu Xize was not in the palace for a whole day, and without the master, the slaves and maids were naturally much more casual than before. There are those who play mahjong, those who play pai gow, those who sneak out and don't know what to do, and those who bring their friends to the palace to show off how leisurely they are as slaves.

And Ye Ningxiang was bored and lay on the bed to sleep, from sleeping after lunch until the sun was about to set, she got up from the bed in a daze, and prepared to go outside to move her muscles. Who knew that just as Ye Ningxiang opened the door, a figure floated in front of her house.

Ye Ningxiang was a little curious about what made this person go in such a hurry, so she followed. After all, it has been specially cultivated, Ye Ningxiang's kung fu in following people is not bad, I saw that the person was wearing a white cloak, and quietly walked out of the palace from the back door of the palace that was so dilapidated that he could barely see it, and before leaving, he deliberately looked back to see if he was being followed. This turn frightened Ye Ningxiang, because this person turned out to be Su Qingqing.

Su Qingqing still walked quickly when he left the house, as if he was afraid that delaying outside for too long would arouse suspicion, and finally stopped at a very secluded street corner, as if he was waiting for someone.

Ye Ningxiang found a place with an excellent view on the opposite street corner, secretly observing everything, but her heart almost jumped to her throat. I kept asking in my heart: What is Su Qingqing going to do here?

After a while, a thin man wearing a big straw hat came to Su Qingqing's side, and the two seemed to say a few words of greeting. Then the man took out a medicine bottle from his cuff and handed it to Su Qingqing, Su Qingqing took it and looked at it for a while, then opened the medicine bottle, looked at the medicine inside for a while, confirmed that there was no problem, and took out some silver taels from the purse around his waist and gave it to the straw hat man. The man took the money and left satisfied.

What kind of medicine is it, it is necessary to obtain it so mysteriously, is it not a good medicine? However, Ye Ningxiang instantly dispelled this doubt, because she felt that Su Qingqing was kind, soft and cowardly, and compared with her previous life, such a person would not use crooked thoughts to harm others. So Ye Ningxiang didn't think much about it and rushed back to King Ning's Mansion before Su Qingqing.

When Ye Ningxiang returned to the palace, the sun had already set, but it was not dark yet, and just after a short while, I saw Danyang and Qin Xiao walking into the palace with a big bag.

"Quick, come over and help!" Danyang said loudly, not knowing who he was talking to.

At this time, Ye Ningxiang was the only one in the courtyard, although Ye Ningxiang didn't like this princess of Danyang who looked a little willful and arrogant, but seeing that she and Qin Xiao were dragged down by the big bag and the small wraps, she couldn't help but go up to help.

"You still have a little conscience. Danyang said coldly to Ye Ningxiang.

What Ye Ningxiang didn't expect was that Danyang and Qin Xiao were followed by four people, looking like they were casually hired to carry things on the street.

"Alright, let's put our things in the courtyard first, and you can go back." Danyang said breathlessly.

Due to the great movement when Princess Danyang came back, the slaves and maids who were very presumptuous before also rushed to help at this moment.

"I bought gifts for each of you, there are so many variety, you can choose whatever you want!" Danyang said with a happy smile, a pair of big eyes curved like a crescent moon are very good-looking.

Ye Ningxiang thought to herself: This Danyang is not quite the same as an ordinary princess, she actually takes the slave and maid to heart so much, it seems that she was a little wrong before.

At this moment, Danyang actually smiled and said to Ye Ningxiang: "Ye Ningxiang, you also have a share of this gift, come and choose." ”

Ye Ningxiang looked at Danyang in some surprise, and then pointed at herself in disbelief, meaning that she was very suspicious of Danyang's words.

"I'm not the kind of stingy woman in Danyang, it's one thing for you to rob a man with me, it's another thing to give gifts, one yard is one yard, why are you afraid that I won't be able to set you up?"

"No, it's not, Ning Xiang doesn't mean that. After listening to Danyang's words, Ye Ningxiang was surprised and felt that this woman was by no means the same as Wang Liyue and Xia Qingqing, so her good impression doubled, and she smiled slightly and picked a few small gifts.

"Listen, big guy, let's have a big dinner tonight!" Danyang smiled even more, and opened the largest bag stacked on the ground, which turned out to be an oven, and the other two bags were filled with charcoal fires. Qin Xiao on the side smiled while opening the pocket he was carrying, which was full of meat and all kinds of vegetables, which made people drool just by looking at it.

When the slaves and maids saw that they were going to eat barbecue for a while, they were so excited that they even jumped up, and then they simply lifted Danyang up and threw it into the air several times in a row. And what is hidden in this is the deep gratitude in their hearts, the three princes treated them very well, but they didn't expect Princess Danyang to be willing to spend money for their slaves, which really made them grateful.

It was already dark, and the huge oven was already set up in the courtyard, waiting to be placed on it. Danyang looked a little unhappy, "Qin Xiao, why hasn't Brother Xi Ze come back yet, should we wait for him." ”

Qin Xiao understood that Mu Xize deliberately separated him and Danyang to deal with some inconvenient things for others to know, such as the Shadow Guard, such as the Fuheng Chamber of Commerce.

"Your brother Xi Ze won't come back, didn't you hear him say that he was going to talk to Ji Beiyuan about Taoism for a day in the National Teacher's Mansion! Qin Xiao made up nonsense for Mu Xize to fool Danyang, who would have expected that Danyang would simply believe it, and a smile appeared on his face.

"Okay then, he doesn't have a mouth!" After that, Danyang smiled and picked up a large piece of fresh mutton that was almost dripping with oil, and said with a smile: "Let's eat!"

It's been a long time since there has been such a scene, more than a dozen people are gathered together, there is no master and servant, there is no high or low, everyone is like a friend, talking freely, drinking and talking, except for one person. Su Qingqing was always absent-minded, and she didn't even eat much of such a delicious dish.

Ye Ningxiang saw it in her eyes, thinking that it was probably because of the bottle of medicine, but it was not good to come forward and ask, so she kept one eye open and one eye closed until the barbecue was over.

Since leaving the palace in the afternoon, Mu Xize's mood has been very low, walking on the streets by himself, not knowing where he is or where he is going.

Along the way, he thought about a lot of things and recalled a lot of the past. I thought of my mother, my father, and Xiao Su.

If he hadn't been so naïve and self-willed, would Xiao Su have been very happy and happy after marrying him? If he hadn't paid so much attention to power and didn't go on the expedition, would he have been able to stop the tragedy of the Su family? If he had arrived at the Rinzhou military camp a little earlier, a little earlier, would he have been able to save Xiao Su's life?

It's just that there are no ifs in this world, and there is no medicine called regret in the world.

He hated himself, even hated himself, even if he was in power, even if he was in control of the life and death of others? He couldn't even protect the woman he loved so much. He even killed Xiao Su's father with his own hands.

The battle of Wuling was supposed to save Su Zhiwu, but when the bow and arrow were inserted into Mu Xize's heart, what was waiting for him was not death, but another form of rebirth.

He couldn't control himself, his normally normal hands instantly grew ten inches long beast-like nails, his originally black hair turned white, and those eyes seemed to be different, he couldn't see the appearance of people clearly, but he could clearly see their beating hearts and dense blood vessels.

So, his hand with long nails easily reached into Su Zhiwu's chest, and without a trace of hesitation, he completely pulled out the heart. Su Zhiwu's surprised and frightened look before he died, he will never forget it for the rest of his life, and even he still remembers the feeling when the heart was held in his hand, soft and warm, as if he hadn't beaten enough.

Ye Ningxiang and they had just finished eating the barbecue, and it was pouring rain outside, and when they got in, the rain had not yet decreased. Ye Ningxiang felt that Mu Xize would not come back tonight, so she took advantage of the dead of night and sneaked into Mu Xize's room when there was no one around.

Probably because Mu Xize is blind, his room is quite simple, only a soft collapse, a bed, and a wardrobe. The perennial training made Ye Ningxiang feel that this room should not be so simple, and there must be some other secrets hidden, if only he could find the scepter that Xiao Qingyu said. Although she didn't know what the scepter was for, Ye Ningxiang felt that Xiao Qingyu seemed to care about it very much, and she had sent people to look for it many times before, but it had ended in failure.

After more than half an hour of exploration, Ye Ningxiang finally found a movable switch at the handle of the small drawer next to the soft collapse, twisted the switch slightly, and found that the side of the soft collapse was slightly raised, and there was a secret room below.

The secret room was very dark, there was no light, fortunately she was fully prepared, Ye Ningxiang took out the fire fold, and as soon as she blew the fire fold, she looked at the light and found that this secret room was very small, and there was a single bed in the innermost corner of the secret room that was not too big, and there was a set of bedding on the bed, and there was nothing else.

Ye Ningxiang suddenly became angry, it was just a bed, a quilt, the palace was so big, where to put it, she had to build a secret room to put them!

Just as she was about to walk out of Mu Xize's room, Ye Ningxiang suddenly heard Su Qingqing's voice.

"Third Prince, why don't you use an umbrella?Third Prince, why have you drunk so much wine?" Although there were only two sentences, Ye Ningxiang could gently hear Su Qingqing's voice getting closer and closer to her, and there was Mu Xize who had drunk a lot of wine by Su Qingqing's side.

What to do, what to do? Where to hide, such a simple house is not easy to hide. Just when Ye Ningxiang was very anxious, she glanced at the wardrobe next to the bed.

Ye Ningxiang quietly hid in the wardrobe, curiously opened a small crack in the wardrobe, only to see the half-soaked Su Qingqing put the soaked Mu Xize's arm around his shoulder, and entered Mu Xize's room with a little difficulty, then put away the umbrella and lit the candle again.

"Third prince, I'll make you sobering up tea!" After speaking, Su Qingqing walked outside the house.

"Qingqing, don't be busy, I'm not drunk, but I'm a little uncomfortable in the rain. Mu Xize said in a somewhat weak voice.

"I'm going to cook you ginger soup. With that, Su Qingqing walked out of the room like a breeze.

Mu Xize wanted to stop it but didn't have time, so he leaned weakly on the soft collapse, not even bothering to change his soaked clothes. Ye Ningxiang felt that Mu Xize at this time was very different from the previous days, there was no smile on his face, and he seemed to look very sad.

Su Qingqing's ginger soup cooked quickly, and in less than a quarter of an hour, he stepped into Mu Xize's room again.

"Third prince, drink quickly, lest you get gonorrhea. Su Qingqing said with a smile.

"Good. The corners of Mu Xize's mouth rose slightly, revealing a shallow smile.

It's just that as soon as he drank this ginger soup, Mu Xize seemed to suddenly become delirious, and kept shouting the word Xiao Su in his mouth, and his eyes became a little blurry, and he actually moved his hands and feet to Su Qingqing, as if he wanted to do something with her.

Ye Ningxiang suddenly remembered the scene she saw when she followed Su Qingqing in the afternoon, and was shocked in her heart, it turned out that Su Qingqing actually drugged Mu Xize in order to get Mu Xize's favor, and it seemed that she was still a charming mental power*. Unexpectedly, Su Qingqing, who was kind-hearted at the beginning, would blacken her heart for love and do such a thing that would destroy her conscience, Ye Ningxiang felt a faint pain in her heart.

I saw that at this time, Mu Xize seemed to be completely out of control, and pulled Su Qingqing's clothes away slightly, and the slightly cool lips also kissed Su Qingqing's face.
